Hi. Please help me to understand something. I have a .wxs file in which I create a virtual directory and I want to put in the Alias attribute a value that I take at runtime from the user. That value is written in an edit control in another file, and I want to take it and use it in the first file. I tried to put a property in the edit tag and then reference it in the first file So, this is how it looks:
In the First file: <Component Id="TestWebVirtualDirComponent" Permanent="no" Guid="054604ca-1790-4c0c-b076-531ff9a5b374"> <WebVirtualDir Id="TestWebVirtualDir" Alias='[WebDir]' Directory="INSTALLDIR" WebSite='DefaultWebSite'> <WebApplication Id="TestWebApplication" Name="Test" /> </WebVirtualDir> </Component> The second file contains: <Control Id='WebAppName' Type='Edit' X='260' Y='120' Width='100' Height='20' Property='WebDir'/> __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
